Dear Bill,
I have just finished a web document for the Public Library
Association on Wireless Networks. I found a few in public
libraries and many more on college campuses. The PLA
Tech Note on Wireless isn't posted yet, but I expect it to be
shortly.
Here's one URL that talks about the Wireless network in
Wisconsin between a public library and a local university.

HTH, at least a bit.

> internet cafes and lounges in several buildings around campus including the
> library. The dorms will be fully "wireless" by the end of the month with
> access via a wireless Raytheon network card for each laptop(at 2MB shared
> capacity).
